Title: Axle Sprocket Carrier Question
Post by: Jeff McKelroy on April 29, 2014, 08:19:27 pm
Hey fellers,

Does anyone know who might manufacture a 1.25" ID carrier that is compatible with the 40-Tooth sprocket, that won't try to kick the chain off?

Or jump up to a 44 tooth rear and add 1 tooth to the sprocket driving the axle  ;)

I understand that, but playing around with belt & chain speed, not just sprocket ratios, may require the use of a 40-tooth sprocket.  Just wanting to have as many combinations as possible for my GP mower, especially if I get to go back to Tampico.
